Prestige in Prestancia
Prestige awaits this home in Sarasota’s Prestancia. This almost 2,500-square foot home is undergoing a full home remodel from the kitchen to the master suite to the den and more.
Firstly, we designed a much more luxurious home for these homeowners; no more closed off kitchen, green cabinet system in the den, rosy pink laundry room, or outdated master bath. With the removal of walls, addition of new custom cabinets, and installation of new luxury vinyl flooring, this home will surely brighten up the entire neighborhood.
The Bigger the Kitchen the Better
Right now, the kitchen sits in an awkward space in the middle of the floor plan. Angled walls box in the kitchen from the rest of the home, keeping the area from utilizing the space it should. Next to the kitchen sits a little too spacious breakfast nook. After the remodel, the kitchen is sliding over into most of this breakfast corner (which isn’t disappearing completely) to make it much larger. Additionally, we’re taking the angled walls currently around it down in favor of the popular open floor plan. The kitchen is going to feel so much cozier after this full home remodel.

Elmwood Custom Cabinetry will be replacing the old pantry, island, and base cabinets. They’ll have an Olive Melamine finish. The countertops will be Pompeii quartz Greylac, as well as a new hearth and bench in the new breakfast area. Also, another new feature is the wine cooler that will be in the new island.
Bath Swap
The master bath will be getting a new drop ceiling and a new shower and toilet location. This whole room is basically getting swapped around. As a result, the new shower is going where the bathtub is, the new water closet is going where the shower is, and one of the new vanities will be going where the water closet is. We’re basically making the master bath larger by getting rid of the bathtub to have more room for vanities and storage.

The cabinets here will have an Austin Grey finish, and the countertops will be Pompeii quartz Diamante. Also, the shower walls will be a dark Sterlina Asphalt polished porcelain tile, the shower floor will be a Sterlina Dove polished porcelain, and the shower floor mosaic and niche will be concrete-look Sterlina Ash.
Additionally, the shower will have a new frameless shower glass enclosure with ClearShield glass protection technology. The new water closet will have a frosted glass door, and the closets will have Colonial Louvre bi-fold doors. The connecting master bedroom will have a new luxury carpet in a creamy color called Lasting Taupe.
Around the House
Right outside the master suite is the laundry room. The bright pink wallpaper is coming down. We’ll be replacing the cabinets with Cabico Cabinetry with a Basal Mat finish and Pompeii quartz Cloud Nine countertops.

The den is getting the contemporary treatment too. What was a corner of green cabinets will become Cabico Unique Series cabinetry with a white melamine interior finish and a Basal Mat finish. The countertop will be Pompeii quartz called Cloud Nine.

We’re also updating a few other features throughout the home as part of this full home remodel. We’ll be removing the old-style popcorn ceiling except in the master bath. As a result, the whole house will be repainted in lighter tones. The homeowner doesn’t want any dark colors at all.
All the flooring (except in the master suite where the carpet is going) will be getting luxury vinyl clock lock flooring. The garage, however, will be getting a flake multicolor epoxy. The lanai will be getting Lucerna Fumo Roc textured rectified tile.
Lastly, we’ll be removing all the windows and the two sliding glass doors to be replaced with white vinyl frame single hung windows and white aluminum sliding glass pocketing doors. Once we’re finished, this home in Prestancia will look brand new from top to bottom.
